in In my home (includes DIY) MoneySaving
I'm looking to purchase a steam mop for the house? Just wondering if anyone had any recommendations. Searching amazon and they're all very similar. Just need some help please!

    We've got a Morphy Richards. I've no idea if it's any good, it hardly ever gets used.
    Tall, dark & handsome. Well two out of three ain't bad.

    I had one for a while... it didn't do anything an ordinary mop & hot water didn't do! Waste of money IMO

    We have one. I advised Mrs Shadow not to get it as my previous experience with steam cleaners was not a good one.


    I think this one was used twice before it became obvious that it was completely useless and a pain to use.


    Don't waste your money.

    Great, if it is already clean, other wise they just spread the muck around.
    An old fashioned mop and bucket picks it up.
    I do Contracts, all day every day.

    Thanks guys. I'm still not too sure. May just persevere with the mop at the moment. Just thought it might make life easier but I haven't see any that stand out or have fantastic reviews. Maybe Ill ask santa for one and save my money. Very mse! :)
